Mask at school, the Technical Committee: ASL may introduce the obligation to wear it also in class according to the local contagion trend.

Nothing mask a school if the distance of one meter is respected. But, based on “local epidemiological trends“Therefore, to the realization of contagion in the different areas, the Asl may “foresee theobligation even in static situations ”, that is, even sitting at the counter. the Scientific technical committee in the note published at the end of meeting today at the reopening of schools unsafety. A meeting in which it was reiterated that it will not be necessary to use nasal and mouth protection when sitting in your seat in the classroom. At the same time, however, it was emphasized that the rules may change, also because “the opening of schools is a primary need of the country, but so is the safety and the continuity activities”.

The Cts in the note explains that “the epidemiological data, he scientific knowledge and the organizational implications found, can determine a modification of the proposed recommendations, also in relation to the different epidemiological trends local, by the health authority that may foresee the obligation of the mask even in static situations with respect to the distance of a certain period, within a strategy of scalability prevention and control measures balanced with the needs for continuity and effectiveness of the training courses ”.

For the moment, however, in the Primary school, the note always says, “to promote learning and relational development, the mask could be remote in static condition with respect to the distance of at least one meter and the absence of situations that foresee the possibility of aerosolization (for example the singing) “. The Scientific Technical Committee goes on to explain that” in high school, even considering a similar transmissibility To that of Adults, the mask can be removed in a static condition respecting the distance of at least one meter, the absence of situations that foresee the possibility of aerosolization (for example, singing) and in an epidemiological situation of low viral circulation as defined by the health authority “.

As of May, the CTS has prepared “several documents with technical evaluation elements, presented to the political decision maker, on the possible remodeling of containment measures for Sars-Cov-2 infection, in order to guarantee the greeting and the safety for the reopening of schools for the new school year “. L ‘World Health Organization, in a recent document dated August 21, recalls the CTS, provides indications on the use of masks in the school environment, differentiating them by age group. Between 6 and 11 years: use conditioned to the local epidemiological situation, paying attention to the sociocultural context and factors such as the child’s compliance with the use of the mask and its impact on learning abilities. From 12 years old: use the same predictions for adult use.
